A greater foe emerges.
I will protect Detroit's peace!


Text by SHINNO Kunihiko




Set in a near-future Detroit transformed into a city of heinous crime, the 1987 film *RoboCop* depicted the struggles and fierce battles of Murphy, a rookie police officer resurrected as a cyborg with a human brain and a titanium alloy body. It was a masterpiece of '80s sci-fi action cinema, receiving high acclaim at the Tokyo International Fantastic Film Festival and instantly making director Paul Verhoeven a household name. Now, RoboCop from its sequel, *RoboCop 2* (1990), arrives as an MAFEX figure.

In this installment, helmed by Irvin Kershner, director of *Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back* (1980), the climax sees an even more powerful, improved "RoboCop 2" attack Murphy! It turns out that RoboCop 2, newly developed by Omni Consumer Products, utilized the brain of "Cain," the leader of a new drug trafficking organization known as "Nuke"...

The MAFEX RoboCop 2 faithfully reproduces the distinctive body colors, down to the finest details, as seen in the film. It includes interchangeable mouth parts to alter its expression, the "Auto-9" special gun, and battle damage parts, offering incredible playability for fans. With this release, we eagerly anticipate a RoboCop figure from the trilogy's concluding film, *RoboCop 3* (1993).
